Experimental Paint Scheme

BNSF GP39E #2911 is wearing another unusual paint scheme. This one is BN green with a BNSF logo on the side with BNSF lettering on the side. The road number is in a white oval. This paint scheme is sure more attractive then BNSF 4340.

Unusual paint scheme

Here is a very unusual paint scheme. BNSF Dash 9 #434o is half primered, half H2. Looks like it was involved in a wreck and BNSF didn\'t paint the wrecked area. I\'m glad this isn\'t the way all BNSF engines look.
